Christmas Countdown - Product of the Day 2

Day 2 - how's the shopping going?

We've had one of these sturdy wooden Tower Slopes out on display for a wee while, and it is one of those toys that attracts nearly every child (and adult!) who comes into the shop! The wooden cars come in a variety of sizes and click-clack down the track with a very satisfying sound.

Tower Slope

At £59.99, it's a great price for a very solid, sturdy piece of kit that will last for years! 

Christmas Countdown! Product of the Day 1

For our first Christmas Countdown product, here is the wonderful Sophie La Giraffe.

With her chewable, squeezable, squeaky body, she is a perfect first toy - ideal for any new little person's First Christmas! Sometimes the simplest ideas are just the best. Her natural rubber material is entirely phtalate-free, so perfectly safe to chew on. 


Sophie


This is one of the products I can personally endorse - my niece, son and nephew have all had a Sophie, and she's been a great favourite with all of them from only a few weeks old! 


Sophie is also very popular amongst the rich and famous - have a look here: Celebrity Spotting!

Sophie is £12.99 and comes in a gift box. 

Photo time @ Learning SPACE with award winning photographer!

A fantastic offer from Learning SPACE for the new year! 

Each week, the wonderful Mariusz will be in the store with his portable studio, running free taster photo sessions - to take part, simply make a purchase in the shop. You'll get a FREE 5x7" photo on production of a valid receipt! (valid for 2 months from date of purchase.)

I was so impressed with the quality - my kids look positively socially acceptable in the photos he took! And from such a short session, we were only there about 10 minutes!

Mariusz is a very talented photographer. With his 10 years of National Geographic accredited experience, he has travelled and photographed all kinds of people and places. His previous work includes photography at the very prestigious Double Take in London. Mariusz won a National Geographic award  just last year with a fabulous picture of Belfast, and is currently writing and photographing a book filled with photos of our city, for publication in his native Poland!

Fun at Photo Time @ Learning SPACE - an experience

Following on from my blog advertising our new FREE event, I thought I'd put my money where my mouth is and bring my own little ones into the shop for a session.


Mariusz was just great with the kids, helping them to relax and feel comfortable with having their pictures taken. His portable studio is just the right size for the space, giving the kids room enough to move around without feeling cramped.


Here's how it went:

This is my 8 year old, posing like a pro. Mariusz was really good at making her feel comfortable and smiley!

Next up, the 6 year old, being remarkably co-operative for once in his life. He really enjoyed the experience, although he was nervous at first. 

And here are the finished results:

Amazing results, I'm sure you'll agree! Especially managing to make the smallest goblin look quite so angelic - I can assure you he is a perfectly normally wicked 2 year old!

I definitely recommend the experience to anyone - and the photos themselves make perfect gifts. Remember, you get a FREE 5x7" print from the session! 

Sessions are FREE with the production of a valid Learning SPACE receipt - no minimum purchase, receipts valid for 2 months from date of sale.
